Solution

The correct option is C It is the site of ovulation
Functions of the uterus include nurturing the fertilized ovum that develops into the fetus and holding it till the baby is mature enough for birth. The fertilised ovum gets implanted into the endometrium and derives nourishment from blood vessels which develop exclusively for this purpose. The uterus also plays an important role in the menstruation cycle.
So the correct option is 'It is the site of ovulation'.
